For our October episode, we discuss the vast and diverse world of Philippine Folklores with Jean Karl Gaverza, Researcher and Founder of Philippine Spirits. We discuss the many Gods, Monsters (Aswang) of the country's regions, and what they say about the many cultures in the Philippines. Karl also gives a generous list of recommendations on what to read regarding Philippine Myths, Gods and Aswangs. Lastly, we discuss Project Glocal Heritage as a way of preserving these many cultural stories. See how you can donate and help the campaign here: https://www.facebook.com/GlocalHeritagePH
